Routine

I believe that every child is different and will have their own routine and way of doing things when they come to me, which I will always try to accommodate. It is useful for me to be aware of times that naps are usually taken and any other special ritual or routines that occur throughout your child's day.

I will always start our day's off with a song when we are all together to welcome everyone to the start of a new day. I will also run through the activities that are planned for that day in the form of a visual timetable that will include times that children are picked up. This can help the older toddlers and children to feel secure as they are aware of what is coming next and have got something they can refer back to to remind them of when mummy and daddy are coming if they are feeling anxious.
